btf, scripts: Exclude Rust CUs with pahole

Browse source 
Version 1.24 of pahole has the capability to exclude compilation units (CUs)
of specific languages [1] [2]. Rust, as of writing, is not currently supported
by pahole and if it's used with a build that has BTF debugging enabled it
results in malformed kernel and module binaries [3]. So it's better for pahole
to exclude Rust CUs until support for it arrives.

Support for the --lang_exclude flag which makes pahole exclude
compilation units from the supplied language. Used in Kbuild to
omit Rust CUs which are not supported in version 1.24 of pahole,
otherwise it would emit malformed kernel and module binaries when
